Enhance FileMeshGenerator so that it can use elemental variables in Exodus to set element integers #14916
Labels
C: Framework
P: normal
A defect affecting operation with a low possibility of significantly affects.
T: task
An enhancement to the software.
Reason
Element integers are extremely useful for reactor analysis where lots of materials could be potentially used. We had something called
FileIDMesh
in our application in the past before extra integer ids are formally supported by libMesh. That code mostly works well except the difficulties with restart and recover. We need to refactor that code to use our new mesh generator system with the newly supported extra element integers.Design
After changes I made in libMesh/libmesh#2471, we simply need to change the
FileMeshGenerator
a little to support this.Impact
New capability.
